Stop all subsidies to the fossil fuel industry and subsidise renewables instead

Petition Details

It is now scientific consensus that not only is climate change the greatest threat facing our society but that the human activity of burning fossil fuels is the primary cause. The government is using public funds to supplement this industry that is destroying our children's future. You need to stop.
